Puzzle Description:

The Wendy's girl (from the Wendy's fast food restaurant's logo). The most recent slogan I have heard is "hot, juicy burger" (which is what the title alludes to). I tried countless times to place the few freckles that she has on her cheeks, but it was IMPOSSIBLE, no matter how many times I tried to place them in different amounts and different positions to get the overall image to have a unique solution. The next problem was her nose. Normally she has 2 small dots, which also became unsolvable until I manipulated it to look like this final image. Hope she is recognizable! :-)

Great!

Thanks! Yes, I was afraid of the "Pippy" resemblance coming through. Hard not to, when hair and stuff is the same.
#4: Jan Young (haidapup) on Sep 17, 2008
True - but it still looks more like Wendy.
#5: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Sep 17, 2008

I started this in the morning, had to go to class at 2:30. Came back for dinner and worked until now (12:18 AM) A whole day worth. Lots of fun! Thanks!
#11: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Mar 18, 2009
Thanks! What class are you taking?
#12: Jota (jota) on Mar 18, 2009
Today I had Pilates.
#13: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Mar 18, 2009
Oh..... LOL, I was thinking like a school class or something. Cool.
#14: Jota (jota) on Mar 18, 2009
Nop! Just trying to be longer and leaner and healthier with Yoga, Pilates, XC Skiing and snow shoeing while I can.

Thus, the "Mantis" puzzles.
#16: Jota (jota) on Mar 20, 2009
Exactly!

This is really good. I recognized her before I even started the face, so you know you did a good job. :) When I was finishing the nose, I was worried about if it would look right at the end, but it turned out to be a really good nose. I like the eyelashes. Good job!

Quite recognizable! A fun solve. I enjoyed watching her come together. And thank you so much for going for the unique solution -- it shows your respect for the genre and for your solvers. Thanks monkeyboy! :o)

#21: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Aug 13, 2011
Thank you.

Recognizable enough to make me wish Wendy's was open now.
#23: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Aug 22, 2016
Excellent image. Tough puzzle.

Once the first pigtail formed, I knew from the title it was going to be Wendy. Those troublesome details missing didn't make her hard to identify; they just gave me this feeling the whole time that she was a little off, and I couldn't place how. Overall, very good job with what you had to work with. She's cute.
